C214 Direct victory

"What happened to me?" Looking at the shocked gazes of the people around him, Lin Yi frowned. At this moment, above Lin Yi's Dantian, a substantial strand of sword Qi was floating like gas. The suppressed sword energy quickly returned to Lin Yi's body and went into hibernation.

Lin Yi tried his best to recall the events that happened before, and the memories in his mind instantly gushed out like a spring.

It turned out that after Lin Yi was invaded by the cold energy of the silver spear and his spirit soul was frozen, the spirit energy in his body lost its source and stopped. At the last moment, the strand of sword aura Lin Yi obtained at the back mountain of the Lin Family Village seemed to have sensed Lin Yi's crisis. He immediately appeared above Lin Yi's spirit, the sharp Sword Qi instantly forcing the chill that was sealing Lin Yi's spirit back.

After that, it spread from Lin Yi's body to his entire body and soared into the sky.

This strand of sword Qi was left behind by the Emperor Sword. The sharpness of it was such that there probably wasn't a single Soul-Soldier in Anwu Continent that could compete with it. Furthermore, the Emperor Sword was a symbol of the Ascendant's position. It could be said that the level of the Emperor Sword could not be compared with any Soul-Soldier. How could a mere Heavenly Soul-Soldier be able to suppress the strand of Sword Qi left behind by the Emperor Sword?

And within this strand of Sword Qi was the Emperor Sword's own will. This will was to protect Lin Yi's safety. When Lin Yi was facing death, the strand of sword qi naturally burst forth.

"So it turns out that the sword energy left behind by that Emperor Sword saved me." After these memories surfaced, Lin Yi immediately understood. When he saw that the Sword Qi was still floating above his spirit, Lin Yi's heart was moved, and the strand of Sword Qi instantly appeared on his finger. When this strand of Sword Qi appeared, Lin Yi immediately saw that the space around the Sword Qi was dissipating like a bubble.

"That … Elder Duan, where is the fellow I was battling?" After another round of experimentation, Lin Yi was satisfied and kept it inside his body, then looked at the stage, and asked Duan Yazi with surprise.

When Duan Yazi heard this, he could only bitterly smile as he looked at the strand of sword Qi that disappeared for a while on Lin Yi's finger. Fortunately, the Sword Qi that erupted from Lin Yi's body did not receive too much of a backlash, and Duan Yazi was able to suppress the Qi in his body. Duan Yazi took a deep breath, then said: "Gong Junfeng, out of the competition."

"They're out?" After Lin Yi heard this, he immediately looked down.

Sure enough, at the plaza below, Gong Junfeng was seated cross legged on the ground, behind him was also an old man. At the moment, the old man was treating Gong Junfeng's injuries. Lin Yi recognized him with a single glance. This old man was the elder who had joined the seventh peak on the second summit, Zhuo Yue Xin.

As Lin Yi's gaze shifted over, Zhuo Yue Xin also withdrew her hand at the same time. Then, he looked at Lin Yi, and suddenly stood up. Then, he cupped his hands and bowed towards Duan Yazi: "Clan Elder Duan, I wonder how Clan Elder Duan will judge this battle?"

"This …" Duan Yazi was startled upon hearing this. If it was said that Gong Junfeng had won, then right now, it was exactly Gong Junfeng who had walked out of the arena. And if they sentenced Lin Yi to victory, then Gong Junfeng would have been able to kill Lin Yi before he was frozen. However, this match could only result in victory and no judgment could be given. Thinking about it, Duan Yazi started to get big.

"The outcome of this battle is somewhat difficult to determine. I wonder what Peak Master Zhang thinks about this matter?" After some thought, Duan Yazi realized that even if they couldn't determine who won, they couldn't be convinced by the crowd. The only thing he could do was to bow his hands and ask Zhang Yunxia who was inside the light pillar.

"The battle between the two of them is rather hard to decide. If they were even, it would be acceptable. However, the rules are still there. Thus, let's give up on this battle and start again. " Zhang Yunxia's voice came out after pausing for a moment.

Duan Yazi immediately nodded. At this moment, most likely the victor would be decided only by starting anew. Zhang Yunxia's judgement could be considered to be fair. Thinking about that, Duan Yazi immediately looked towards Gong Junfeng who was beside Zhuo Yue Xin. Under the help of Zhuo Le Xin, the latter had already recovered.

"Gong Junfeng, do you hear what Peak Master Zhang is saying?" Duan Yazi immediately said.

"Disciple heard it." A trace of fear flashed across Gong Junfeng's face, and then, as if he was struggling, he bent down and cupped his fists as he replied.

Duan Yazi heard and nodded, then looked at Lin Yi: "Lin Yi, do you have any objections?"

Hearing that, Lin Yi shook his head, the judgement before him was reasonable, he immediately shook his head and replied: "Disciple has no objections."

Hearing that, Duan Yazi nodded his head again, and then said: "Since that is the case, all of you can begin now."

Hearing that, Lin Yi nodded his head, then looked down at Gong Junfeng. Seeing that, Gong Junfeng hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and jumped onto the stage.

Seeing Gong Junfeng enter the stage, Duan Yazi opened his mouth: "Let's begin."

Hearing that, Gong Junfeng's hand flashed, and the Ice Soul Silver Spear instantly appeared in his hand. Seeing that, Lin Yi's heart moved, on his fingertips, the strand of Sword Qi appeared.

Looking at the Sword Qi on Lin Yi's finger, Gong Junfeng's breathing obviously slowed down, his face flashed with a struggling look, then he shook his head, a look of unwillingness in his eyes. Finally, he slowly opened his mouth and said, "I, I admit defeat!"

As soon as Gong Junfeng finished speaking, Lin Yi was immediately stunned. What kind of situation was this Gong Junfeng, to think that he would directly admit defeat after seeing the sword aura on his finger. In truth, it was not just Lin Yi, but even Duan Yazi almost vomited blood when he heard this. When the surrounding disciples and leaders of various forces heard this, they also shook their heads. Obviously, Gong Junfeng was shocked by the strand of Sword Qi that came from Lin Yi.

Seeing that Gong Junfeng had chosen to admit defeat, Duan Yazi could only open his mouth and say: "In this battle, Lin Yi wins."

Hearing that, Gong Junfeng seemed to have received an amnesty, he cupped his hands towards Duan Yazi, and in the next moment, his figure flashed, instantly dropping down.

Seeing that, Lin Yi laughed bitterly, at the moment Gong Junfeng left, he looked more and more like a grudging woman. At the same time, Lin Yi was also a little curious about the strand of sword Qi in his hand. Previously, when he was sealed in ice, he had not seen the power the sword Qi had displayed. But from how Gong Junfeng immediately admitted defeat, the power of this strand of Sword Qi must be extremely strong.

Thinking about it, Lin Yi suddenly had a lot of interest in the Emperor Sword. Just a single strand of sword qi had such a terrifying deterrent force. If the Emperor Sword was found, the might of the sword would be even more terrifying.

Thinking to this point, Lin Yi immediately thought to himself: "Looks like it's time to start preparing for the search for the Emperor Sword."
